HITEQ Resources & Events

HHS has developed materials to help clarify how clinicians can use telemedicine as a tool to expand buprenorphine-based MAT for opioid use disorder treatment.

In this webinar, the HITEQ Center provided a broad overview of NCQA's Patient Centered Medical Home (PCMH) recognition for 2017, including overall structure, timing, and evidence options that are new to 2017. The new standards focus on continuous practice transformation, flexibility including a new virtual review process, comprehensive integrated care, and increased alignment with existing initiatives. We reviewed what this means for health centers, what is required, and identified tools or processes that health centers can use to support PCMH recognition.

HRSA’s Bureau of Primary Health Care (BPHC) is pleased to offer a webinar hosted by the SAMHSA- HRSA Center for Integrated Health Solutions that will address strategies to leverage health information technology and technologies that support population health management and data aggregation to facilitate and sustain behavioral health interventions. Presenters will share best practices for health centers in streamlining and sustaining behavioral health workflows and maximizing their electronic health record to ensure comprehensive and accurate billing and coding.

AMA's Steps Forward Module discussed the adoption and implementation of telemedicine and telehealth, as well as telemedicine's opportunity to support patient and care team coordination and communication through remote patient monitoring.

These webinars assisted health centers with understanding coding in the context of risk adjustment and value-based payment and care.
